Nabil Fekir insists a move to Liverpool is "not close" as speculation mounts over the Lyon playmaker's future.

Jurgen Klopp's side, beaten by Real Madrid in Saturday night's Champions League final, have been persistently linked with a move worth in the region of £60million for the 24-year-old France international, who captained the Ligue 1 side this season.

But Fekir told French television programme Telefoot on Sunday morning: "I'm not close to the Reds.

"There are talks with clubs. I will take time to reflect on things."

Fekir's comments follow those of Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas earlier this week which suggested the player could stay with the club despite appearing to bid farewell to their fans following the final game of the season.
